"one of the most democratic countries in the world" might be a bit of a stretch here

Democracy is when you spend several decades murdering and repressing all leftist political opposition. The more leftists to murder and suppress, the more democratic it is.

Democracy is when the people can vote for their politicians instead of countries like the PRC where they are forced.

Democracy is when the people can vote for ~~their politicians instead of countries like the PRC where they are forced.~~ a selection of candidates handpicked by the US government.

Do you have any proof of that happening or did you just make that up as usual?
